Christmas casual and postman at the same time

Post by JP1 »

Hi,

I'll be starting soon as a part time postman, but there are a lot of Christmas casual vacancies on the website.

Can I apply to be a Christmas temp while being a postman, and do I do it on the normal recruitment site?

Thanks!

My postman contract is only one day and eight hours. I would prefer to do more work there, but if I could go down to the mail centre, I'd quite like to do it.
